Little or no organic stuff, last time i went (last year), but some unusual fruits & veggies (e.g., figs & yellow cherries). There's one in College Park, off Calvert Rd. (cant remember which parking lot it's in, maybe the Ice Rink? not too far from Kenilworth, on the left side of Calvert), also on Saturday mornings. I wasnt very impressed with it last year: no organic stuff and most looked like supermarket material even if it was grown on the Eastern shore. OTOH at least they had greens and okra...... -- Judy Karpen "I'm a scientist...I dont think, I observe! " karpen@nrlfs1.nrl.navy.mil (Dr. C. Forrester, MST3K, "Hercules vs the Zone 7 Moon Men" )
